Scenario:
Lets say an air force, rather than buying specific type of aircraft for dedicated roles, wants to consolidate on one type to be used for multiple roles i.e. air policing, strike, maritime strike, etc (the way things are going). It prefers to use Flankers for whatever reason (think malaysia, Indonesia, Algeria, etc), which would you consolidate with?
Su-34
Su-35
Su-30SM/30MKI
Mig-29M (why the hell not, its becoming a flanker now)
